Ultrasound Doppler Findings in Fetal Vascular Malperfusion Due to Umbilical Cord Abnormalities: A Pilot Case Predictive for Cerebral Palsy
Fetal Vascular Malperfusion (FVM), a pathologic condition in the feto-placental circulation, is a chronic vaso-occlusive disorder in the umbilical venous blood flow. Microthrombi are caused by the umbilical cord’s blood flow deficiency in a congested umbilical vein, which also causes microvascular d...

description | Fetal Vascular Malperfusion (FVM), a pathologic condition in the feto-placental circulation, is a chronic vaso-occlusive disorder in the umbilical venous blood flow. Microthrombi are caused by the umbilical cord’s blood flow deficiency in a congested umbilical vein, which also causes microvascular damage to fetal organs, especially the brain, resulting in cerebral palsy. Thrombo-occlusive events also adversely affect the upstream chorionic or stem vessels in the placenta, resulting in fetal growth restriction and fetal hypoxia. An umbilical cord structural anomaly or multiple entanglements may involve FVM. In the present report, we demonstrate a case of FVM caused by multiple umbilical cord abnormalities obtained from antenatal ultrasound Doppler findings, and we also discuss FVM, which is chronically associated with CP, comparing the ultrasonographic findings to the pathologic findings. |
